How to use pip with Visual Studio Code - python-3.x

I have python 3.6 installed, I have a python extension installed on Visual Studio code but I still can't use pip on Visual Studio code. It says it is not a recognised command. Any help please?
Update: I tried installing pip manually but a file in python2.7 keeps stopping. What's bothersome is that I uninstalled python 2.7 ages ago and I've currently removed every folder with it but python-V still says I have python2.7.6 installed.
I'm on windows 10

I found some solution on this website:
https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/
If you use Visual Studio Code, you can type the following command:
C:\> py -m pip
If everything is alright, you should see the list of commands, which you can use. They are listed in your terminal, as per below.
I also would advise you to check/select the version of Python you are using:
VSCode: There is no Pip installer available in the selected environment

I am pretty sure your problems of VSCode not finding the correct version of Python will be resolved if you add your ( Python 3.6 installation ) location to the system path.

Visual Code gives error that it cannot find Python on Mac Pro

I'm running a Mac Pro 2021 model version 12.6. For some reason, my vscode will not run Python anymore when I tried using a program. I switched over to the cloud-based version for a while and now switched back to the application. It says that it could not find Python in my files. I believe both VSCode and my Mac are updated up to date. I installed python 3.11.0 for Mac, but no progress. I also tried running the update shell.command and the certificate commands as a part of the download in the vscode terminal, but it did not help. I also reinstalled the Python
v2022.16.1 Vscode extension and restarted the program. I still get the same error.
Explained above.
Have you tried Shift + Command + P type "Python: Select interpreter" yet?
Usually, all installed Python interpreters show up here, and you can also enter a path to a Python interpreter on your system.

Visual Studio Code with Python for Windows AND Anaconda

I'm trying to use Visual Studio Code with both Anaconda and Python for Windows.
I have both installed, and I have the visual studio code extensions for both.
But no matter what I do now the Conda Base gets activated -
(base) PS C:\Users
even though the Python for Windows is the selected version
or if I try to activate an environment I get a mix of both, the venv with python for windows and the conda base activated.
(venv_iocparser) (base) PS C:\Users\
The settings.json file in this folder only has python for windows in the 'python.pythonPath'; with no mention of conda, but still activates the conda base.
Does anyone know a good article that walks through setting VSCode up with both? With python for windows as the default?
Thank you!
Had a similar issue. Its most likely since you installed VS Code with Anaconda, for some reason or another it just assumes thats what env you want when starting it.
To get out of it just run $ conda deactivate and then activate whatever env you want after that. I fixed it by changing the PATH for the python to only point at the non-conda versions though. I also had uninstalled it all and reinstalled it all at one point though.

Python, Anaconda & PyCharm multiple versions of Python3

I just installed Anaconda3-2019-10 on my MacBook.
I tried to make sure that my previous Python 3 version was totally uninstalled / removed from my system. Typing python3to the terminal didn´t work anymore.
After installing Anaconda and PyCharm (pycharm-community-anaconda-2019.3.3) I started a new Project to test everything. For that I selected to create a new Conda environment:
After I created the process I checked the Preferences and the "Project Interpreter". This is what I found:
I expected to find two interpreters 1.) my 3.7 Python version and 2.) the Conda environment just created.
Does finding 3 versions mean that I didn´t correctly deinstall Python3 before installing anaconda or is there anything that I don´t understand here?
Do I need both versions?
If not is there a safe way to remove one of them?
For removing Python3 from my system I did almost everythin suggested in numerous posts in Stackoverflow.
Upon creating a venv(virtual environment) you no longer need to worry about the existing interpreter. https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html this might be of help.

Error While installing packages in pycharm i.e pandas and all

I have just installed pycharm 2019 edition. I have already installed python 3.7 in my system. My normal python program in pycharm is running fine i.e. printing hello world but I am not able to install packages like pandas and all. its showing error. 2nd thing i am not able to see latest version of pip that is been shown in pycharm.
I have tried to do this with some changes in manage repositories but It didn't wokred
While clicking on pip its showing "Error loading package list:pypi.python.org" this error message.
I want to install packages but cant able to do it.
Please download Anaconda Distribution, which is basically made for pandas and all. You can use Spyder which is one of the best tools for Data Science. There you can easily install pandas.

"No module named wordcloud" after successful installation

After searching everywhere on here I found some solutions to my problem. At first, the error was that I needed Visual C++ 14.0 and that I could get it from a link that didn't work. So, I downloaded Visual C++ Build Tools and got Visual C++ 14.0.23026. That did not solve the problem.
I did some more searching and found that I could install it using wheel. So, I got wheel and got the .whl file from here as shown in the comments of this
post, making sure to get the correct version for my python version (3.6). Running python -m pip install wordcloud-1.5.0-cp36-cp36m-win32.whl worked, it seemed.
However, after restarting Pycharm, the IDE I use to run python files, it still didn't import it correctly. ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'wordcloud'.
What am I missing here? Thanks!
EDIT: It works outside of Pycharm (just double clicking my python file), but I'd still like it to work in Pycharm.
I have the same problem and I've solved it.
When you create a project, you should choose 'inherit global site-packages
Or
You can use the terminal in the Pycharm to install the wordcloud.
You can also install wordcloud by File->Settings->Project:your project name->Project interpreter.
